offense if the answer is his wife You can guess who that is,” he said in a phone interview with Golfweek “Most of the time when we get invited somewhere people will say really we’re inviting you so you can bring your wife.” “The Favorite Chamblee” is the name of a new podcast that Brandel and Bailey launched on April 17 It’s got a bit of a "Live with Kelly and Mark" vibe to it the long-running husband-wife morning talk show hosted by Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa This golf-centric version is unaffiliated with Golf Channel “It’s something my wife and I wanted to do for a while She’s going to have frequent guests on from the fashion world [Editor’s note: Those of us at Golfweek await colleague Eamon Lynch’s debut appearance with bated breath.] “I’m going to pop on here and there and be on most of them but it’s a way for her to entertain the fashion world and females in the golf space with a little analysis from me in it.” one of the best in the business at what he does This is a window into Brandel away from the set that viewers otherwise don’t see how he almost sabotaged his relationship with Bailey before it really began with a poor shoe choice But the best segment so far is the story of Bailey bringing an empty suitcase to Augusta to bring home 60 bags of Masters potato chips for contestants of her member-member tournament back in Arizona How does one go about buying 60 bags of potato chips at the Masters During the Saturday round of the Augusta National Women’s Amateur she filled a tote bag with 25 or so bags of chips But she also recruited her hubby to raid the Masters media center On the way to and from the Golf Channel set Brandel made a habit of snagging two bags of chips I felt like I robbed the bank,” he said on the first podcast episode “I looked around and I was like somebody’s going to come out some Green coat is going to come out and go you got two bags yesterday on the way in and two on the way out Bob's your uncle and we have 60 bags of chips," Brandel said three bags of chips were compromised on the trip home As Brandel was preparing to do the pre-game show before one of the most anticipated major championship rounds in years "I have to go back in and steal gold from Fort Knox," Brandel said "I'm getting kicked out of Augusta for getting more than my allotment of Masters chips.” Two episodes in and it already feels as if "My Favorite

obviously made Bailey a priority as he was one of the first players to commit to Darian DeVries Bailey kind of got caught in a bit of a weird churn in the portal He wasn’t the first commit – that was either Conor Enright or Tucker DeVries depending on how you might look at it – and he didn’t come in with the drama Lamar Wilkerson did as Indiana won the head-to-head fight with Kentucky for Wilkerson Bailey’s commitment also became public knowledge on a Sunday a day when many aren’t paying attention to such things If it’s true that Bailey got overlooked due to circumstances beyond his control matches up to anyone else Indiana brought in from the portal a very high total from a non-point guard who averaged nearly 20 points per game could be the best player Indiana brought in his career suggests that his game will do plenty of talking for him Here’s a look at some examples of Bailey when he’s been at his best in his career a player’s biggest moment becomes a footnote because his team lost Such was the case for Bailey in a Davidson game at Rhode Island on Jan Bailey went crazy against Archie Miller’s Rams He scored a career-high 32 points on 11 of 17 shooting and he was a perfect 4-for-4 from 3-point range Bailey also made a layup with five seconds left in overtime to put Davidson in front It was an effort that would be long remembered by Davidson fans Except Rhode Island’s Sebastian Thomas drilled a 3-pointer with a second left to give Rhode Island a 92-90 victory Bailey started all 97 games he played at Davidson but he really didn’t become dominant until his recently completed junior season Bailey averaged 18.8 points for the Wildcats shooting 41.5% from 3-point range and 47.7% overall It stands to reason that Bailey’s top six scoring efforts came in the 2024-25 season He peaked with the 32-point game at Rhode Island but he had five other games where he scored at least 25 points it’s not surprising that Bailey shot 50% or better on five or more shots in a game 27 times Bailey’s career-best percentage was 5-for-7 against both Fordham and Peace His personal best was 11 field goals made in a 72-66 win at Richmond in January Bailey has had an impressive 23 games where he shot at least 50% from 3-point range Only one of them came on five 3-point attempts or more but he’s proven to be reliable from long range Bailey’s career-best in 3-point accuracy was a 4-for-4 performance in that win against Richmond That’s also his career-best for 3-pointers made in a game Bailey can be lethal at the free throw line He’s had 25 games where he was perfect from the line Seven of those games came when Bailey attempted five free throws or more He was 12-for-12 at the line twice – in a 2023 game against Miami of Ohio and in a January 2024 game at Fordham Davidson Wildcats forward Reed Bailey (1) loosk to shoot as Providence Friars forward Oswin Erhunmwunse (55) defends during the second half at the Imperial Arena at the Atlantis Resort / Kevin Jairaj-Imagn ImagesThough rightly characterized as a stretch four forward He’s had six career double-digit rebounding efforts His career high was 14 rebounds against Loyola in February including an 11-assist effort in that aforementioned win against Richmond Bailey’s career high in steals is five in a December 2024 win against Detroit Mercy though he’s had a trio of three-block games Bailey’s performance against Richmond gave him his best sports-reference.com game score of 29.8 He barely missed a triple-double with 30 points It was one of the most dominant performances any of Indiana’s transfer portal additions have had in their careers Bailey rates highly in advanced offensive metrics He ranked in the top 20 in the Atlantic 10 Conference in nearly every advanced offensive category – including the fourth-best Player Efficiency Rating at 22.3 Advanced stats bear out Bailey’s distribution skills His 25% assist rate is outstanding for a 6-11 forward Bailey is the finished version of what Trent Sisley could become for the Hoosiers once he gets accustomed to playing at the college level it will bode well for Indiana on two fronts and he could help Indiana down the line given Sisley’s potential TODD GOLDENLong-time Indiana journalist Todd Golden has been a writer with “Indiana Hoosiers on SI” since 2024, and has worked at several state newspapers for more than two decades.

A third fan joked Talking to girls is hard," prompting Zimmerman to address the comments with a statement of his own "I GET NERVOUS AROUND PRETTY GIRLS," the 25-year-old eventually wrote in the comment section of the TikTok video garnering a whopping 5,053 likes and 47 replies PHILADELPHIA − For Phillies closer Jose Alvarado it was one of his most harrowing escape jams There he was in a bases-loaded, no-out situation in the top of the eighth inning on April 29 against the Washington Nationals the Phillies clinging to a 3-2 lead at the time Alvarado reached back and proceeded to strike out Josh Bell Dylan Crews and Alex Call to get out of the inning without allowing a run in a game the Phillies would come back to win 7-6 in the bottom of the ninth The crowd went crazy as Alvarado escaped the jam It was the first time a Phillies pitcher had struck out three consecutive batters with the bases loaded in the eighth inning or later since 1968 Little did Alvarado know that he had help in the stands from Princeton Bailey Princeton was caught on camera by the NBC Sports Philly broadcast standing on every pitch imitating Alvarado's motion as Alvarado prepared for each pitch Princeton made the bow-and-arrow stance as Alvarado pumped his fists and celebrated on his way to the dugout Alvarado found out about the video afterward and said he wanted to meet Princeton That happened on May 2 before the Phillies opened a three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks 46 jersey and beads representing Alvarado's home country Alvarado wrote a long message to Princeton "It was something really special," Alvarado said through a Phillies team interpreter "Looking back at the moment and seeing him doing like I was doing during the game It was something fun and encouraging message for him and sharing some thoughts like that – never give up and follow his dreams." “He just loves baseball," Troy Bailey said I think he’s seen the Super Bowl like 50 times "All he does is mimic the players that he sees so that he can go out there and make an impact."

I didn’t see the need for a “special” pen when I had plenty of daily pens I liked just fine (that I didn’t have to worry about losing) But my mom told me how much she liked hers and I could tell it meant a lot to her to give me something she enjoyed so much and picked out a white and gold one that I thought was really pretty — and I have enjoyed using it every single day since I got it although it’s currently on sale for $20 on Amazon You can refill it with various types of Cross refills such as black or blue ink and rollerball or ballpoint but is also comfortable to write with for a long time It flows smoothly and reliably and feels so nice gliding across the page The pen also feels great in my hand, which is something you don’t really appreciate much until you have a pen that does! There’s something about the width and heft of it that makes it feel light and balanced in my grip.

Bailey '99 (CLAS) whose significant lead gift is among the largest from any UConn graduate The project will bring athletics, research, academic support, sports medicine, and other programs together in one facility to build upon each other in support of the student success journey, one of the mainstays of UConn's Strategic Plan The renovations will also help UConn address Title IX equity requirements and add 50 to 60 more years to the useful life of the field house complex which has been a mainstay in the campus core since it opened in December 1950 Earlier on Wednesday, UConn announced a transformative $15 million commitment from longtime supporters Denis and Britta Nayden that will establish The Nayden Center for Academic Excellence within the Bailey Student-Athlete Success Center At the core of this transformative project the 12,000 square foot academic center will become the home for holistic development and well-being for every student-athlete at UConn This comprehensive space will facilitate learning The gymnasium will be renovated to house UConn's Student-Athlete Success Program (SASP) which supports student-athletes with tutoring post-graduation career or academic planning The field house opened in December 1954 and has been used for many purposes since then most recently as UConn's Student Recreation Center Plans were envisioned to renovate it for another use after the new recreation center opened in 2019 but funding constraints and complexities of dealing with the COVID pandemic slowed those plans In addition to housing the SASP and sports teams the renovated complex will include additional space for UConn's Department of Kinesiology The exterior also will be modernized with masonry repairs access to public restrooms for events at Sherman Field and a new roof and related mechanical equipment The renovations also provide an opportunity for UConn to significantly improve the complex's green-friendly features, with plans to meet LEED Gold standards that complement UConn's Sustainability Action Plan to achieve carbon neutrality on campus by 2030 Thanks for visiting The use of software that blocks ads hinders our ability to serve you the content you came here to enjoy We ask that you consider turning off your ad blocker so we can deliver you the best experience possible while you are here A demonstration school for preschool through fourth-grade children the ELC not only provides small classroom environments with curriculum designed for hands-on learning but it also provides Pacific students the opportunity to put theory to practice. "I am a learner first and a teacher second I wanted to be at a place where the students I worked with could have an example of the theories I was talking about and see them in practice." Distinguished University Professor of Education The ELC’s development and its growth continue to be among Bailey’s proudest achievements.“Pacific has supported this kind of dream this vision I had many years ago,” Bailey said “When I was able to get the grant and start the ELC there were people who trusted me and trusted Pacific to try this new school and new place to learn Now we don’t have enough room for all of the children who are interested and all of the parents who would like to bring their kids here.”What the ELC provides and Bailey has tried to model in his classes He experienced it firsthand in graduate school where he taught correspondence courses The experience of education during the COVID-19 pandemic only confirmed that conviction.Distance learning and Zoom have their place and value but can’t replace the in-person experience. Sanchez’s degree is in education.“I’ve been supervising her student teaching and she’s amazing,” Bailey said “I thought that I would like to stay here until the first student who leaves the ELC comes back and graduates from Pacific Little did I know that it would be within the area of education Watching this process through her eyes has been spectacular.” Copyright © Pacific University all rights reserved | Legal Disclaimers news‘Backup Plan’ by Bailey Zimmerman & Luke Combs - Lyrics & MeaningBy Maxim Mower ‘Backup Plan‘ follows in a similar vein to the defiant, middle-finger-in-the-air battle-cry of ‘New to Country’, with Bailey Zimmerman offering encouragement to listeners across a rowdy, energising instrumental. A sea of electric guitars lead the way, with Zimmerman's charismatic vibrato and Luke Combs’ signature rasp complementing one another and accentuating the passion that permeates this earworm. “So your back’s backed up against the wall As far as I can see there ain’t no way to be Bailey Zimmerman begins by stepping into the shoes of someone's who's feeling down-and-out, with the Illinois native addressing the listener directly as he advises them to push through the pain. The overarching message of ‘Backup Plan’ is to never give up on your dreams, with Zimmerman stressing that, if you really want it and work hard enough, you can make it happen - in the same way that he has. If you got something to prove go on ‘n prove it Tune out the doubters and all the closed-minders If it’s in your blood, falling down ain’t enough And gettin' back up, that’s the only backup plan you need” Over the course of the rousing hook, Bailey Zimmerman and Luke Combs share their words of wisdom as they emphasise how the key to achieving your ambitions is, above all else, to keep going. They stress the need to remain focussed and not let others drag you down, before delivering the satisfying punchline, which revolves around the witty transition from “gettin’ back up” to “backup plan”. But if you’re doing what you love and it kills you Well, you can live with that all day long” For Luke Combs’ verse, the ‘Beer Never Broke My Heart’ crooner zeroes in on the various ways in which detractors might try to slow down your trajectory to greatness. He highlights that, although other people might try to place obstacles in your path, you should keep pursuing your dream. Combs implies that even if it “kills you” and makes you feel exhausted at times, it's easier to live with that, than to try and live with the ‘what if’ that comes with giving up. There's another clever play on words here, as Combs follows the lyric “it kills you” with “you can live with that”. The duo are yet to explain how ‘Backup Plan’ came about, but when teasing the initial clip of the track in January, Zimmerman gushed, “BDAY SURPRISE FOR YALL...I don’t know when I’m putting this out but ITS A BANGER...Let me know what yall think”. And gettin' back up, that’s the only backup plan you need Yeah, gettin' back up, that’s the only backup plan you need” Pirates Implode in 6th Against Cardinals; Losing Streak Continues Pirates Preview: Bucs Start Quick Getaway in St. Louis Nick Gonzales Close to Starting Rehab Assignment: ‘I’m Feeling Great’ One of Pirates’ Few Bright Spots Dimming; Team’s Struggles Build Pirates Conclude Dreadful Homestand With Lifeless Loss to Padres Pirates Minor League Report: Hunter Barco Earns Triple-A Promotion Pirates Minor League Report: Konnor Griffin’s Five-Extra Base Hit Weekend Pirates Top Prospects Update: Developing Another Ace?
